The Washington Capitals and Caesars Entertainment announced a multiyear partnership Friday that will begin in the 2022-23 season, per David Purdum and Greg Wyshynski of ESPN. The team will wear the Caesars Sportsbook logo on its home and third sweaters.
The Capitals are the first NHL team with a jersey sponsor and the first in the four major United States sports leagues to sell jersey sponsorship to a gambling entity.
The patch will measure three inches by three-and-a-half inches.
The Capitals will not have the Caesars Sportsbook advertising on its away uniforms, however, to ensure it isn't seen in arenas in states where single-game sports betting isn't permitted.
